I don't think the OP said anything at all about excusing bad behavior in the name of rivalry...

In fact JCL clearly pointed out there not being an excuse for bad behavior. I think you're missing the point entirely right now.

While I respect the sentiment, here are a few things I want to point out.

So is it ok for Utes to mock and make fun of Max Hall and his addiction issues?

TheHop

He seems to have taken it in stride. Even when it crossed the line, he turned it into a positive situation.

So it's ok to act that way as long as the person takes it in stride?

TheHop

I dunno, I don't tend to try and dictate the way other people behave.

Don't roll your eyes at me. You asked a question and I answered it.

Act what way? Point me to the posts that have crossed the line and I'll line up behind you. I haven't seen any.

Why aren't you concerned about the punter and the jokes about him?

My issue is using the rivalry as an excuse for bad behavior.

That is not my point. My point being we make fun of players all the time, what makes this any different? Are you also

It's bad behavior to laugh at a dude dancing?

What does that matter? It’s OK? But if he committed suicide it would have

I think how we respond is very important. We don't get to control what people do or say, even if it's unfair.

Ive never told a Ute otherwise. I dont mock ex Utes who have struggled with addictions myself but to each their own.

A male cheerleader dancing funny is the same thing as a person's struggle with a hard drug addiction?

Unibro

I'll answer that. No.

Extraordinarily odd response given the content of the OP. Nothing in the OP would justify that scenario in my view

Do you think putting max halls mugshot on your shirt and making a drug reference

IceCreamButt

How do you even see both of those as an equivalent comparison?

Chuckling at a dude who dances ≠ making fun of a guy for addictions.

fattycoug

It's funny, and I don't have any proof but it seems there has been way more jokes about the punter than the cheerleader

Yep, i dont see any Ute fans crying about the jokes for the punter.

Making jokes about a punter who almost died is no laughing matter!

Desert Rat

It’s certainly not kind to mock him. He’s not a public figure, just some

Do you also defend every other Ute player who gets mocked on here? If not, what makes this different?

I don’t think we should mock anyone. We should try and be better.

stenso

Sounds good. But this is a sports messaging board. And there is literally a Ute Smack Category.

turns out everyone in your school was gay? What were you naive about?

Too long. 🙄🥱 Just say “Gay jokes aren’t cool but jokes about stupid Utes are”.
